What a smart comedy this turned out to be! Great actors doing great things... why wouldn't anyone find this satisfying?
In one room I had an eighty-year old and an eleven year old laughing out loud.
Great combination of suspence and humor... recommend to anyone.
I agree. Just saw this with a friend this evening, both of us having seen lots of films over the last 40 years. A small film well done. Each of the 3 principal actors play against type & look like they had loads of fun doing this movie. We laughed a lot & ended with big smiles & warm feelings. We also recommend to anyone.
shareI also enjoy this movie a lot.
shareAgreed. This movie caters to all demographics. I'm 28 and enjoyed this thoroughly. I've always enjoyed anything with Morgan Freeman in it, and Walken and Macy were hilarious in this as well.
I think the 'unbelievability' of it all is exactly the point. It's absurd, and intentionally so.
It's great fun. So glad I heard of it and decided to sit down and give it a go.
I hope others can enjoy it as much as I have.
agreed v good all 3 are great especially walken - v classic - all just preferences i guess but if you didn t like it your wrong : )

I am shocked with all the haters on this board. It's not like this movie promised to be a huge caper like Ocean's 11 or anything. I thought it was brilliant. Someone else one here mentioned it was too slowly paced. That is insane. After we watched it my gf and I both agreed that it was paced perfectly.
It was very predictable from the start, but I think it meant to be that way. It's just a silly little movie, and I had a great time watching it.
Marcia Gay Harden stole the movie, especially during the scenee with the cookie jar money.
It just wasn't funny
shareYes real sleeper. Denmark gags, rope sliding, planning from park bench with the big pink cotton candy. Too fun. Op Urgent Fury. Real pleasure. Extra treats if one is involved in the visual arts.
